The confirmation review asked for the delivery domain's own vocabulary
instead of a provider standing. A gitea health check would need a `tools`
list (turning gitea's tools into seat verbs), a check of another kind
beside it, and would hold the forge's own deliveries at the first-node
gate; so the delivery's owner says it, with the word it already has.
- gitea_open_pulls (gitea): every open pull request from the forge itself,
with what its base requires and the statuses its head has.
- mesh-delivery asks it every five minutes and keeps its own first-seen
time per head (the forge's update time moves on every comment). A head
on a base requiring mesh/merge-gate OR mesh/repo-check (hq requires only
the second) with neither for ten minutes is a `stalled` line in state
`unannounced`, which the controller raises as delivery.<id>.stalled (D14);
H2 has nothing to close. Once announced it is a delivery of its own.
- The gitea-side watcher and its provider standing are gone.
The announcer read only the repositories whose update time moved since its
last pass, less a minute. Opening, reopening or retargeting a pull request
does not move a repository's update time, so a pull request opened more
than a minute after its push was never announced, never checked, and
nothing said so (mesh-sdk #14, 2026-10-09).
- Each pass also looks at every repository holding a pull request updated
since the floor, by the forge's own search; every ten minutes, or when the
search fails, at every repository.
- Every five minutes the forge is asked for every open pull request; one on
a base requiring mesh/merge-gate whose head has had none for ten minutes
is said as the forge failing that pull request's merge check (a provider
standing, ADR 0224), which the controller keeps as a condition, and is
recovered when a check arrives or it closes.
- The client refuses a pull request or issue number that is not one before
asking the forge (a misnamed tool argument sent pulls/NaN).
mesh/merge-gate pass: builds docker, gitea, lab, nftables, slack, systemd → ace, g14, novox, shanks; no bus step; 4 wait(s) for a person; every machine com…
An agent meets the mesh's words most often in tool descriptions, and
nothing compared them with the glossary: several still said "the host"
for the node-engine and the forge's pull request comment was headed
"Change plan", a word retired twice over. retired-words is the copy of
the words the glossary retires for the tools, and checks/words fails the
repository check when any string a module's code can show, or any
manifest description, uses one. Those found are reworded here.
Branch protection requires mesh/merge-gate (and mesh/repo-check on the core
repositories) with no admin override, and the forge combines warning as a
failure. A note is now a success that says it; a repository without a
merge-check.sh is a success where repo-check is not required and a failure
for a person where it is; the status tool refuses the merge check's contexts.
One module answers 'did my change go out' for a commit and orders a
cross-repository change: one compiled state table, its state on the bus,
every transition said, noted on the commit and shown on the pull request.
The forge's holder gains the note, view and status tools it asks with, and
says closed pull requests and a merge's head and statuses.
The gate's status says what the change does and how it was judged; a change that builds
something gets its plan as a comment — the tiers, what each machine receives, and what
is not an ordinary send.
The controller asks its planner what a pull request reaches, as if merged: a module whose
manifest the change deletes is one the merge removes, and the plan's dependents are said
on the gate's status beside the modules it moves.
The controller now decides what a pull request's check runs from the mesh's module
graph, so the announcement carries the changed directories that hold a module at the
head and whether the head has a merge-check.sh. A verdict sets mesh/merge-gate (the
gate, with the modules it judged) and mesh/repo-check (the repository's own tests).
gitea_branch_protection_get/set let the operator's agent make those statuses required.
The catalogue's merge-check.sh leaves the gate to the build seat and keeps its own layer:
every manifest through module check, and the touched Go modules' tests.
The forge's announcer announces each new head of an open pull request as pull.updated, once,
and marks the head pending; the controller asks the build seat to check it against every
machine of the mesh's facts, and says the verdict as checked, which the forge's holder sets as
the head commit's status mesh/merge-gate - an error never as a success - with the check's own
account as a comment when it is not a pass. merge-check.sh is the catalogue's check: every
manifest through the running controller's module check and merge gate, and the Go tests of each
module the change touches, a module whose dependencies cannot be fetched said as not tested.
